Am I crazy in that I don’t want to follow someone who streams six to eight hours a day? That’s way too much content to consume!

I didn’t know what to expect after I had my first kid, but I’ll say that I still don’t like mobile games and I’d rather play nothing at all then replace the games I like with phone games.

It is sad that there won’t be another one (for now). But at the same time, like, can’t some things just exist and be awesome on their own? I know it’s a sequel, so this is kinda dumb to say. But if there’s no justification to make another one, then let’s just have the one great game. I don’t need there to be six more.…

“You can grab We Love Katamari REROLL + Royal Reverie, the second Katamari game, which was re-released on the Nintendo Switch on June 2"

Respawn is developing a sequel to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, for example, as well as a first-person shooter and strategy game.

They’re getting upset prematurely. You see the twist in the remake is the FEMC comes back from an alternate timeline as the main cast is fighting with “Destiny Personas” who try to make sure everything remains on the same plotline. It’s brilliant, you see. No one wants to play the same story AGAIN, just go play the…

Main narrative? Absolutely not.

Background lore?  You bet.  That’s one area Bethesda does really well, imo, and it’s part of what keeps the Elder Scrolls games interesting for me.

I don’t know what lizard-people level billionaires control the Republican party, but they are absolutely fantastic at their job. As much as they cry about Soros funding the supposed “communists,” they have way more money and influence to spread their propaganda. Whether it was the Red Scare or Satanic Panic or our…

This is SE we are talking about. By the time the entire game is out, it will be on PS6 and be the ultra-mega-shoopdawoop remastered 6-disc collection will be following with even more shit they came up with while snorting sake.

New trailer looked exactly like my feelings on the first game: 95% of it is everything I wanted, but the remaining 5% is *so egregiously bad* it ruins the whole thing.

Except MS’s games are, on average, not subpar. Pentiment has an 86 MC score. Grounded has an 82. Tell Me Why has a 78. Flight Simulator has a 90. AoE4 has an 81. Hi-Fi Rush has an 87. Psychonauts 2 has an 87. Forza Horizon 5 has a 92. Halo Infinite has an 87. Gears 5 has an 84. As Dusk Falls has a 77.

I don’t need the numbers and move names, I need the game to convey the consequences of actions through the look and feel of the interaction. Done effectively, the UI can be largely made redundant.

Are you intentionally misinterpreting the complaint? Because come on, you know that’s not what people are talking about.

It’s truly remarkable the more I learn about the game, the more I’m put off by it. (It’s not a knock against the game per se—I’m just marveling how each update manages to introduce new features that are not to my taste at all. I long for turn-based FF of old.)

If that’s what you take out of people reminiscing about the older FFs, you’re missing the point. It’s a completely different style of game from a turn-based or semi-turned-based game (ATB nuances aside) into an action RPG. That’s fine, it can be whatever they want it to be. It’s just not the same for me and hasn’t for…

Even ATB is still a completely different gameplay feel and experience than an action RPG, so I get why people who are long time fans are wary. And I’m saying this as someone who’s relatively excited for FFXVI.

I’ve been playing Final Fantasy games since the first one, and will probably eventually try this one.  With that said, I’d be lying if I said I was particularly enthusiastic about it based on the pre-release coverage.

i dont understand how anyone can be “exhausted” by any form of entertainment. “no longer doin’ it for ya” is not “exhausted,” which implies someone else has exhausted you with their behavior.

I think the last physical release I bought was........FFXIII-2, never even got FFXIII LR. Went fully pc after that, and there is no permanently attached physical media drive on my pc. This is like looking at people lining up to watch black and white television to me
